The Biggest treasure in the history of the independent Ukraine: more than 10 thousand coins of the Crimean khanate times, was found in the wood on the Tepe-Oba mountain in the region of Feodosia (the Crimea).

The director of the Feodosia Money Museum Oleksandr Oleshchuk disclosed this to UNIAN.

According to the words of O. Oleshchuk, “the treasure was found by chance in a jug (which has a look of teapot), which was digged at a small depth in the wood on the Tepe-Oba Mountain. This is the biggest treasure in the history of the independent Ukraine. Before that, the biggest treasure was also found in Crimea, in Chufut – Kale (Bahchysaraj region – UNIAN). 4 thousands 250 coins were founded at that time”, said the director of the Feodosia Money Museum.
